When this route gets cheap.
The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes 3 stops and takes about 16 hours outbound, on a 14-night trip — ticketed under Sky Express Greece, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $1,093 for 9,308 km each way, that works out to about $59 per 1,000 km flown. That is above the $44 per 1,000 km typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 30 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Osaka, this fare ranks 23rd — 1.9× the $582 we hold from Brussels. For context, the middle fare among the 28 routes of similar length we watch out of Athens is $794. We have 3 months of cached prices for this route so far — not enough to call a fare cheap or expensive, so we publish the price without a percentage. Fare history here is still too short to name a cheap season. The best time to be in Osaka: Mar–May · Oct–Nov.

The median cached fare across this calendar is 9% higher than when tracking began on 8 Aug — $1,001 then versus $1,093 now, across 8 recorded snapshots. This is a calendar-level trend, so an individual deal above can be lower. The lowest single day we have seen here is $938, on 8 Oct.
These are the only days we have a cached price for on this route so far — not the only days it flies. The search above covers any date.

Good to know
ATH → KIX, answered.
How far in advance should I book ATH → Osaka?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. Our guide Why flight prices change covers the levers we can measure.
Are there nonstop flights from Athens to Osaka?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Sky Express Greece. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
